WXV Semi Finals: Pacific & Seoul to Face Bad History

[Purple 77]

these finishes are actually nuts

It might come down to scaling for both games

[Purple 77]

98 seconds to go

Seoul needs 10 more points!

Good Game New Delhi  well done.   

[JBs-Hawks]

Well done Holz! Good luck on back2back!

Rage trade Josh Kelly to me. Luke Parker would have gotten up and kept playing.

Only 2 more points for an extra quarter and a half of footy!

[Holz]

Well done Holz! Good luck on back2back!

Thanks JB, another great game between Seoul and Dublin.

Totally unlucky with kelly.

Im sure we will have plenty of battles in the years to come

[meow meow]

Piecific were atrocious. Out in straight sets! LOL

Lucky you only played NDT this week. If I named the right captain last week Christchurch would have embarrassed you even more than NDT did this week.

[Toga]

Wow what an insane couple of results!

Very unlucky JBs, no doubt you will be up the pointy end again next year though.

Langdon Heroics Take Tigers to Prelims

Wow. This would have to be up there for one of the biggest upsets I reckon. Pacific finally had an off game, and it cost them.

I'll leave the scorecard to do the talking... be sure to check it out. But a huge congratulations to New Delhi! And serious commiserations to Pacific, whom were very unlucky to score the most points in 2018 and somehow not beat a top 6 team, or make the prelims. May your luck turn in the future.

Dublin send Seoul Marchbanking Orders

Game of the year. This had it all:
- a 200+ individual cameo
- 15 centurions
- high-octane scoring
- Captaincy drama
- HGA drama

Just to name a few. It all came down to Charlie Curnow & Caleb Marchbank to score 148 points between them to win the game. Charlie did OK with 81... but Marchbank choked horribly, scoring 29 and becoming the HGA, agonisingly falling short.

Game of the year. Just, wow. A big congratulations to the deserving Dublin, and a huge commiserations to Seoul, whom for the second year in a row have their premiership quest stopped by Dublin.

Amazing results.

Both the away teams win, both against teams that have historically done badly against them, despite being in better form.
